John Shannon and Daren Millard are joined by Ryan Strome on 100% Hockey to discuss his recent experience stepping into the broadcast world during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Strome shares what it was like appearing on Hockey Night in Canada, reflecting on growing up watching the show and why being part of the broadcast felt like a full-circle moment. He talks about the transition from player to analyst, what surprised him about television, and how differently you see the game from the studio.
They also break down the Stanley Cup Playoffs, including Carolina’s strong postseason run and the Vegas-Anaheim series, while looking at what separates the remaining contenders.
The conversation also touches on major NHL storylines, including Toronto’s decision to move on from head coach Craig Berube following their first-overall draft win, and Vancouver’s reported front office plans involving Brian Johnson and the Sedin twins.
A mix of playoff analysis, media insight, and perspective from a player experiencing the game in a completely different way.
